Cornflake Chicken Fingers

These might be the best chicken fingers I've ever made. The chicken is coated in cornflakes, parmesan cheese and ranch dressing mix. What's not to love?

I crushed the cornflakes in the food processor so they were super fine. I also double dipped the tenders so they were super crunch and tasty. I can not stop thinking about these chicken fingers. They are seriously delicious!! I will be making them again this weekend.

Heat oven to 450. Line cookie sheet with foil; spray with cooking spray.

In a shallow dish, combine cornflakes, cheese, and ranch mix, set aside. In another shallow dish whisk together eggs and milk. Dip chicken tenders into egg mixture; then coat in cornflake mixture. Repeat - dip in egg mixture and back in the cornflake mixture. Place double coated chicken tenders on cookie sheet and spray with cooking spray.

They look great. I might just have to try corn flakes in my chicken nuggets to see if I can step them up a notch. The Parmesan cheese sounds like a nice addition too. I'll leave out the ranch dressing since I can't stand the stuff.

I love these, my mother made them all the time when we were growing up (sans the ranch dressing) - back then, you could buy a box of cornflake crumbs (but I haven't seen those in a long time) - it was one of our faves !
